Poor Customer service

emailed firm with a description of my case, they replied that they would have someone contact me within 24 hours. Waited 2 days, tried again, this time no reply. Poor work practices.

Wealth of Information!

Mr. Gillette is well-versed in assisting those needing representation with Social Security benefits and was there when my wife and I needed sound advice. We very much appreciate the time he took to expand on our options!

This is the legal team to choose

From my first phone call to the last call Brian Gillette and his legal team couldn't have meet better expectations. From being kind compassionate and caring to being extremely knowledgeable about the ins and outs of my legal case this team was excellent from the start. They did not drop the ball a si...ngle time and out paced any lawyers I have dealt with previously. Mr. Gillette picked up my case in the middle after my original lawyers dropped me and he hit the ground running. I knew I had chosen the right legal team when in my hearing Mr Gillette argued hard to keep evidence in the case that the judge wanted to throw out and he won that first battle. I was beyond happy to hear that he not only won that battle but won the whole case for me especially after he had to play catch up from my previous lawyers dropping me. I can say with all honesty that from the first phone call I had more and better communication and information from this legal team than I had in more than a year of dealing with my previous legal team. I highly recommend Brian Gillette and Gillette Law Group for your legal needs. They have won me as a client for my legal needs for life, and I dont even live in the same city. Mr. Gillette was able to work with me, play catch up, get all of my information in a very short amount of time and win my case, all remotely. We accomplished everything over the telephone and I could not be more pleased at the outcome. Five stars isnt enough. And not just for Mr. Gillette, but for his legal team as well. Their communication and dedication to working with me was excellent and in my opinion exceptional as well. My case was a difficult disability case, dropped by my first lawyers and won by mr Gillette. I absolutely recommend this team.

Disability Lawyer

Brian is very knowledgeable and fights for his clients. I do not practice disability law so I always refer people to his practice. He has a great team and will be honest and upfront about results. If your looking for a disability lawyer he is the best around.
